Okay... Got it.

Actually we are some pretty well off IT guys(both of us are IT managers at fairly large companies). We were just hoping to turn this into a side business by introducing paid services later.

In addition, we are big bitcoin fans and just want it to flourish.

I guess AutoDistrust=enabled


Still, thanks for your input.

Hi Everyone, My brother and I put together a free service that allows you to associate your bitcoin public key/address with your email to make it easier for people to send you bitcoin. Please go to http://lootid.com and check it out.

We believe that better usability is the key to faster mainstream adoption of bitcoin. Let us know if you have suggestions to improve it.

It's a nice idear, but i think the issue here is trust: how do we know you won't switch our address with one of your own?

This way, we'll be telling people: if you need to send coins, just look up our address on lootid, but in reality they'll send coins to your address instead.

I'm not saying that this is what you'll do, i'm just pointing out what i think is a flaw in the logic used here.

Ahhhh... Didn't really think of that. Good one. Maybe more transparency on who we are may help alleviate those fears. Then again maybe it won't.  Cheesy

Anyway, we will have to think about that. Thanks for the input.
